Morphology

anti-white = white (semi-transparent) = anti + white

The form clearly combines anti- plus white, but the racial/political sense is a specialized extension rather than a purely literal colour contrast.

Etymology

Anti-white joins the prefix anti- ('against'), the same anti- you see in antibiotic, with white ('white people'), so it literally means being against or hostile to white people.
